GENERAL LOGAN,S BODY.
why DR.. Buck Wants the Guard Re-
moved.

The Washington correspondent Of the New York
Herald says: Ever since General Logan'S death q
volunteer squad OF regular Army soldiers have
guarded his tomb in Rock Creek Cemetery. The
other night when DR.. Buck, the venerable rector
OF the ancient church with which the cemetery is
connected sought to pass through the grounds he
was challenged by the guard, and was so much
annoyed by them that he said he would have the
soldiers kept out OF the cemetery. He has COM
pia1ned that they desecrated it by playing cards
there and other unseemly conduct, and so there
should be no guard around the vault. 1t Is in this
placed on December 81, to stay until the State OF
Illinois is ready to receive the body.
MRS. LOGAN OPPOSED 10 REMOVAL OF THE GUARD.
"When Mrs. Logan heard of the proposal to re-
move the guard she was deeply grteved, and said
II the guard were removed the cofin with her late
husbands body in 1t. should be brought to her own
home, Calumet Place, there to stay In what is to
be memorial hall to her late husband, until in
TERED nnally In Illinois. or course her friends do
not wish this to be DONE as 1t would be constant
revival OF Mrs: Logans grief to have her husbands
induce the vestry OF Rock Creek parish TO let the
guard remain in the cemetery, DR.. Bucks wishes
70 the contrary Notwithstanding. DR.. Bucks resi-
dence Is close by the church and the cemetery,
which last Is the yard OF the church. DR.. Buck
has been the rector over thirty years"
What Mrs. Logan Says.
STAR r. porter this afternoon called upon Mrs.
gard to the above statement. She said that it was
true that DR.. Buck of the Rock Creek parish, had
said that he would like to have the
guard removed. He thought that it was
no longer necessary to have a guard
there, and besides, that it was not
appropriate In cemetery OF that Kind. Mrs
Logan says that she told him that at present she
had no other place to deposit the remains OF the
General and that she would feel at all inclined
II the guard was removed, to allow the remains to
stay there In such an event she would bring the
cofn and place it in the han OF her house until the
place was prepared by the Illinois legislature.
MIS-. Logan said that Major httenhOuSe, a mem.
Der of the yestry, was OF the same opinion as her
self. DIR. Buck mad said that he would bring the
matter to the attention OF the vestry, but she
thought that this would not be done and that
nothint further would be done. AS to the alleged
bad Conduct OF the men, she had heard nothing
about IL, but she had visited the grave frequently
and found the members OF the guard not only gen.
temaniy in their conduct but faithful in the dis
charge OF their duties. She did not think that
their conduct had been in the least Objectionable.
NO PROTEST OFFICIALLY MADE.
1t cannot be learned that any protest was made
either at the War Department OF at the Washing
ton barracks from where the guard OF a sergeant
and six men is detailed by order Of the Secretary
OF War.

How Conky Joe was Queered.
Albuquerque IN. NJ Letter.

Albuquerque IN. NJ Letter.
One OF the members of the big
gang OF ~deperadOes which In now
~Operating in this vicinity il COuky
Joe, q fellow who Is something OF a
crank, bat who is nevertheless a
hard citizen. He came into this
country from Montana, four or five
years ago, aud has been getting
tougher every minute since his ar.
rival. He was "%queered" as his
companions put it, in 1888, when he
With several other hard men held
up the Silver City stage. Conky
Joe was the man who vas selected
to relieve the passengers of their
valuables, and it VAS while doing
this that he met his fate. There
were two women in the stage. Que
OF these wasa girl from California,
who, as soon as Joe came within
reach of her, threw her arms
around his neck and planted a kiss
%SQuarely on his lips, at the same
time declaring that she loved him
more than anything else on earth,
and intended to follow him of TO
his head quarters. The other rob
berS were disposed to trown nnoh
thus familiarity, but i weak spot in
Joe's head had been touched, aud
aud he has been a crank ever Siuce.
The girl left the stage then and
there, and, mounting Joe's horse,
went off with him. What became
of her is not known. Joe IS ignO-
rant rs to that himself. They were
married by IA Colorado justice, and
lived together for some time /; but
she eventually became tired of the
life she was leading, and it is~nrob.
able that she Z went back to the
coast. 1t her conduct was nothing
more than a freak, it has had a
more lasting effect upon Conky
Joe. He is as desperate as ever,
but his schemes have now taken a
new turn. He believes that there
IS something irresistibly fascinat
ng about him an | that every wo.
nan in the Territory is anguish
ng for his attentions.
THIS is one reason why the gang
which Joe trains is anxious to get
i'll OF him, and why the authorities
|eleve they will be able to capture
he whole crowd if he remains with
hem. He has arrayed himself in
he most fantastic fashion, aud,
few men dare encounter

a woman. In spite of his
lecnllarity it is believed that he

lealing with men, that he is a lead.
II not to be lightly ignored. It is |,
probable that an effort will be
made to trap him by some tricE, in
which d woman will play an impaHl
